Create a new ScriptRegistry instance.
Application to attach registry to.
Private _listPrivate _scriptsAdd Script to registry. Note: when createScript is called, it will add
the Script to the registry automatically. If a script already exists in
registry, and the new script has a swap method defined, it will perform code hot swapping
automatically in async manner.
Script Type that is created using createScript.
True if added for the first time or false if script already exists.
var PlayerController = pc.createScript('playerController');
// playerController Script Type will be added to pc.ScriptRegistry automatically
console.log(app.scripts.has('playerController')); // outputs true

Optional arg1: anyFirst argument that is passed to the event handler.
Optional arg2: anySecond argument that is passed to the event handler.
Optional arg3: anyThird argument that is passed to the event handler.
Optional arg4: anyFourth argument that is passed to the event handler.
Optional arg5: anyFifth argument that is passed to the event handler.
Optional arg6: anySixth argument that is passed to the event handler.
Optional arg7: anySeventh argument that is passed to the event handler.
Optional arg8: anyEighth argument that is passed to the event handler.
Self for chaining.
obj.fire('test', 'This is the message');
Test if there are any handlers bound to an event name.
The name of the event to test.
True if the object has handlers bound to the specified event name.
obj.on('test', function () { }); // bind an event to 'test'
obj.hasEvent('test'); // returns true
obj.hasEvent('hello'); // returns false
Detach an event handler from an event. If callback is not provided then all callbacks are unbound from the event, if scope is not provided then all events with the callback will be unbound.
Optional name: stringName of the event to unbind.
Optional callback: HandleEventCallbackFunction to be unbound.
Optional scope: objectScope that was used as the this when the event is fired.
Self for chaining.
const handler = function () {
};
obj.on('test', handler);
obj.off(); // Removes all events
obj.off('test'); // Removes all events called 'test'
obj.off('test', handler); // Removes all handler functions, called 'test'
obj.off('test', handler, this); // Removes all handler functions, called 'test' with scope this
Attach an event handler to an event.
Name of the event to bind the callback to.
Function that is called when event is fired. Note the callback is limited to 8 arguments.
Optional scope: object = ...Object to use as 'this' when the event is fired, defaults to current this.
Can be used for removing event in the future.
obj.on('test', function (a, b) {
console.log(a + b);
});
obj.fire('test', 1, 2); // prints 3 to the console
const evt = obj.on('test', function (a, b) {
console.log(a + b);
});
// some time later
evt.off();
Attach an event handler to an event. This handler will be removed after being fired once.
Name of the event to bind the callback to.
Function that is called when event is fired. Note the callback is limited to 8 arguments.
Optional scope: object = ...Object to use as 'this' when the event is fired, defaults to current this.
obj.once('test', function (a, b) {
console.log(a + b);
});
obj.fire('test', 1, 2); // prints 3 to the console
obj.fire('test', 1, 2); // not going to get handled
Remove Script.
True if removed or False if already not in registry.
app.scripts.remove('playerController');
Container for all Scripts that are available to this application. Note that PlayCanvas scripts can access the Script Registry from inside the application with AppBase#scripts.
